„Pas seulement un Steinway de plus“.
Galaxy Instruments a déjà avec Galaxy II Grand Piano démontré la capacité de capter l‘essence du son dans le sampling. Avec „Galaxy Vintage D“, c‘est un pas de plus.
Dans le studio Bauer à Ludwigsburg un piano de légende a été enregistré : un Steinway D de Hambourg de 1920, sur lequel des pianistes tels que Chick Corea ou Keith Jarrett on joué. Ce piano Steinway D de 2,74 mètres de long a sa propre histoire qui réside essentiellement dans son caractère riche plein et chaleureux. Grâce à des micros également légendaires tels que les Neuman U47 et KM53, les préamplificateurs Siemens ou les console Neve du studio Bauer; il a été possible de capter le caractère de ce Steinway D avec authenticité. Le résultat est un puissant Steinway D plein de vie et de chaleur. Avec Galaxy Vintage D, le nouveau moteur Kontakt 4 de Native Instruments est utilisé. Aux côtés de performances améliorées, l‘interface du plug-in Galaxy-Players et le réglage sont devenus encore plus intuitifs.
